Forecasts

Verdict

The first time visor can bring about the improvement needed for QUILL ART to register his second career success in this handicap hurdle. The selection represents the in-form Richard Fahey stable (13/61) and was beaten just 2L off this mark at Catterick in February. Peppay Le Pugh can claim second once more as he goes in search of a first victory following a good effort at Uttoxeter on soft ground earlier this month while Back To Balloo can register another place following his solid third placed effort in the previously mentioned Uttoxeter last time out while the mare Stepover is another to consider in this.
  1. Quill Art
  2. Peppay Le Pugh
  3. Back To Balloo
